The Perfect Alignment

Laila Jenkins and Richard Cheng never intended to fall for each other. As two orthopedic interns at St. Joseph's Medical Center, their paths were set for competition, not companionship. Laila, the compassionate and determined underdog, has spent her life proving she belongs in a field dominated by men. Rich, the cold and calculated prodigy, carries the weight of his father's impossible expectations and a legacy he refuses to acknowledge.

From rivals to reluctant allies, from secret glances to stolen moments, their relationship evolves in the midst of surgical rotations, sleepless nights, and an unspoken challenge-who will be chosen as Dr. Perry's top intern?

But when the final decision threatens to drive them apart, they must learn that love isn't about winning-it's about standing by each other, no matter the outcome.

Their journey spans months of growth, heartbreak, and healing, proving that some battles aren't meant to be fought alone. And in the end, the greatest victory might just be finding home in one another.
